Nazish Jahangir recently disclosed a harrowing experience from her past when an online taxi driver attempted to kidnap her in Karachi. During a talk show appearance, the actress detailed the frightening incident, shedding light on the safety risks associated with online transportation services.

Disturbed by his tone, she responded, leading to a verbal altercation.

As the situation escalated, Nazish asked the driver to stop the car near Sea View. To her shock, the driver locked the doors and menacingly declared his intention to take her to his brother while refusing to halt the vehicle. Fearing for her safety, Nazish Jahangir resorted to pulling down the car’s mirror and screaming for help.
